I spend a lot of time on Skype with the guys I have trained.  At any moment of the day, I may get a chat from them, asking for help.  Here is an example of a fairly common conversation. 

You'll notice I'm called "brother" a lot...it's just how Spanish-speaking Christians talk.  Tomas is one of my absolute favorite evangelists and I love to help him. He types REALLY slowly with two fingers, so our chats can last over an hour before we're all done.

Hi Brother Marty

Hi Brother, I can't hear you.

10:36 AM
I don't hear anything.

Tomas

How are things going at work and with your family?

Everything is going pretty well here.  Yesterday I was in a meeting talking about how to promote the use of the Bible in minority languages, the one Albino is attending.

Tomas
10:44 AM
That's great, brother.  May the Lord Jesus Christ shine His light on us in the work that we do.

Sometimes He only shines like a tiny flashlight, only showing just the next step.

Tomas

The Lord has given us this light to shine and make it known to those who don't know God.  Through our work, we can lead them to victory.

amen!

Tomas

So now I'd like to ask you a question, brother, regarding the Photo Frame video screens that you showed us at the conference.  I'd like to know how the project is coming along.

We are still working on putting together a working unit.  Would you like to be the first one to field test one?

Tomas
11:08 AM
Yes, brother, that would be great.

11:10 AM
ok.  Tomorrow I'll talk with Jaime about a number of things, and the Photo Frame will be one of the things I mention.

Tomas
11:12 AM
Almost all of the VHS machines we have been using to show the Scripture videos are broken.

Marty Lange - oficina/office - Martin Lange
11:19 AM
ok - we need to change to the Photo Frames as soon as possible.

Tomas

I also wanted to tell you that down near Quillabamba, my trainees are planting new churches.  Last week, I was teaching the first course on how to show portions of the Scripture videos, so that the trainees are discipling the CHURCHES THEY HAVE PLANTED BY SHOWING THE VIDEOS.
